A gradient placed with the Gradient tool stayed where it was when the
object's Warp effect changed the outline, so the warped shape no longer
matched its gradient.
Under each Warp style the placed gradients of a path now move and scale
from the path's bounds before the warp to its bounds after it, as they
do under Free Distort. This applies to an object's own Warp and to a
fill's or stroke's own (a stroke uses its stroke-inflated bounds), on
the canvas and in Object > Expand of the fill. In a group with a Warp
effect, each path's and compound path's gradient follows its own
bounds, and the own fills of the group and of the groups inside it
follow those groups' bounds. A warp with no bend and no distortion
leaves gradients exactly where they are, and gradients fitted to the
object are unchanged.
This changes how existing documents draw: a placed gradient on art with
a Warp effect now follows the warped outline instead of staying in
place.
How gradients follow the warp is VectorCraft's own rule. What the Warp
effects do to the object is described in
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/reshaping-objects-effects.html
A grant records the module's SHA-256, but only its permissions were
compared, so a module with other bytes under a granted id inherited the
grant when it listed no new permission.
A grant now covers a module only when the id, the SHA-256 and every
listed permission match. plugin.inspect reports needsApproval for a
changed module, plugin.install refuses it without a new grant and leaves
the installed module and its grant as they are, Install Plug-in and
File > Open ask again, and the plug-in store and plug-in folders skip it.
The same bytes install again without asking, and a module with no
permissions list or an empty one needs no grant. A grant whose hash is
not 64 lower-case hexadecimal digits covers nothing.
plugin.install still trusts the client that sends grant; the docs say so.
document.save, file.saveAs, file.saveCopy and file.saveAsTemplate wrote
the file when given a key that no save format reads, beside the path or
in options, or an unknown key inside a PDF option object such as
marks.useDocumentBleed. document.exportForScreens did the same for an
unknown top-level key, a key in a format row and a key in the settings
of a format.
These commands now refuse such a key and name its path
(options.noSuchOption, formats[1].marks.useDocumentBleed). The svg
object is checked in every save, export and format row, also when the
file written is not SVG. A save still leaves out a key that only another
save format reads, and warns as before. A format row and a format's
settings still take includeArtboardFill and richBlack, which the
encoders read. document.exportPresets.save checks its settings, with the
rows and settings in it, the same way.
In the app, file.save and file.exportForScreens sent as commands are
checked as document.save and document.exportForScreens, and app.save is
checked before anything is written; MCP's app.save, file.save and
file.exportForScreens are checked the same way. The SVG Options dialog
no longer passes its internal fields on to the save.
File › Open With reads a picked file on the thread File › Open uses, with the importer and its parameters, so a slow importer does not freeze the window. A call that names path still gets document.open's result. Cancel in the progress window now raises a cancel token on that thread, which stops a running importer between two slices of its budget.
- text.spelling.check checks a given `ids` as edit.findReplace does
(checked_ids_param): a non-array, a negative, non-numeric or unknown id is
an error instead of a check of the whole document. Null still means every
visible, unlocked type object.
- The byte-offset test puts an em dash, not "café", before the unknown word,
so it passes whichever dictionaries craft-proof is built with (CI builds
with craft-i18n's, where "café" is unknown).
- Docs: the spell check engine in target-app-parity.md (Type advanced rows
and evidence), gaps.md (G4), roadmap.md (M7) and the Language per
character rows of type-parity.md, with status lines and revision history.
A gradient fitted to the object refit to the outline after the object's
Transform effect rotated, reflected or scaled it unevenly, so the
gradient kept running left to right while the shape turned under it.
Object › Transform already turns such a gradient.
A Transform effect that a refit would not reproduce now fixes the
gradient to its fit on the geometry the effect takes, and then maps it
with that effect and the effects after it, as a placed gradient. Under
moves and even scales it draws as a refit does, and an effect that
scales the object to nothing across leaves it fitted. This applies to
an object's own effects, a fill's or stroke's own effects, and a
group's: in a group, the gradients fitted to its paths, to its own
fill, to the groups inside it and to its images' and symbol instances'
own fills each fix to the fit on their own object. Object › Expand of
the fill draws the same.
This changes how existing documents draw: art with a fitted gradient
and a Transform effect that rotates, reflects or scales it unevenly
now shows the gradient turned with the art. How gradients follow the
effect is VectorCraft's own rule.
An importer may declare an extension that File › Open handles another
way: a plug-in, shortcut set, script, preset, library or swatch library
such as .ase, or one a built-in format reads. "All readable files" and
the importer's own filter no longer list those extensions, and an
importer with none left gets no filter. Open With still opens them.
A key that a paint does not have, such as `opacity` on a solid fill, was
dropped when the paint was read, and the fill was drawn opaque. The
result is now refused and `lastError` names the field, for keys on the
paint and on its colors, gradient, stops, placement and freeform points.
Pathfinder effects, compound shapes, Expand Appearance and pattern
expansion now pass the document to the effects they evaluate, so a
painted piece that names a swatch or pattern takes part as drawn instead
of being refused. A path with a painted effect takes part in Pathfinder
and compound shapes as its pieces, each with its own paint, inside the
path's opacity and blend mode.
The renderer's kept effect art and live evaluations now count the
document's swatch and pattern names for objects with a plug-in effect,
so deleting or restoring a swatch a piece names redraws the object.
Installing the built-ins is not bounded by the heap limit: Math and JSON
no longer reserve heap while they install, so a realm made with a tiny
heap_bytes gets every built-in and runs once the limit is raised. If
installing fails, the realm keeps the reason and every run ends with an
internal error instead of running against missing built-ins.
The json2.js test skips only when the built-in check returns false, and
fails on any other result. The parser's progress line says the app does
not run scripts yet.
New from Template, Load Character/Paragraph/All Styles, Recolor's Other
Library… and the library panels' Other Library… read files with the
built-in readers, so their open dialogs now use builtin_open_filters(),
which leaves out the extensions only importer plug-ins read. File › Open
keeps open_filters() with the importers' files.
The artboard of a document an importer opens is now kept within
±4,000,000 pt. Art at the edge (a zero-width path at x = 4,000,000, or a
stroke past the edge) gave an artboard beyond it, and every later edit
of the document was rejected.
File › Open With asks for the parameters of an importer that declares
any, at their defaults, once the file is picked (dialog `pluginImport`),
and opens the file with the values set. `file.openWith`, `app.open` and
MCP's `open_file` take `params` and pass them to the importer;
`app.open` without them runs the importer on their defaults, with no
dialog. A file opened with Open With is added to Open Recent, as File ›
Open adds the files it opens.
A filter's input is now encoded within the half of the plug-in's memory
cap that the input and the parameters share. Every object counts toward
it in paint order, with its id, bounds, transform and name. Type runs
and image pixels that don't fit what is left come with truncated or
pixelsOmitted, and a type, image or symbol instance whose other fields
alone don't fit fails the run before the plug-in starts with
"memory budget (object N needs S bytes of input, L left)".
open_file passes `importer` (an importer plug-in's format id,
plugin.<id>) on to app.open. Headless, it becomes document.open's
`importer`; in the app, app.open with `importer` runs file.openWith, so
the file opens with that importer as File > Open With does, also when a
built-in format reads its extension.
The Edit > Spelling items have been placeholders with nothing behind them. This adds the
engine half of Check Spelling on craft-proof, the shared spelling engine in craft-libs (at the
revision the other craft-libs crates already pin), so no word list is copied here:
- text.spelling.check {ids?} lists the words the dictionaries don't know in every visible,
unlocked type object (or ids), each run checked in its Character panel Language (English
when it has none; nothing in a language without a dictionary), as {id, start, end, word,
lang}. start/end are byte offsets in the object's text, the ones text.editRange takes, so a
word is changed with text.editRange as one undo step. At most 10,000 words, with `more`.
- text.spelling.suggest {word, max?, lang?} gives the dictionary's suggestions, asked for one
word at a time as craft-proof recommends.
English comes from the public-domain Moby word list built into craft-proof. Its dependencies
(log, miniz_oxide, toml, unicode-normalization) are already in the lockfile. The Check
Spelling dialog, Auto Spell Check and Edit Custom Dictionary follow in later PRs.
A filter manifest that lists `inputs` must now list `doc.read` in
`permissions`, so installing it asks the user to grant them and the
Additional Plug-ins Folder loads it only once granted. Left out, the
manifest does not install.
The pixels of all images in one filter input take at most 16 MiB of
base64, and the runs and paragraphs of all its type at most 16 MiB of
JSON. An image whose pixels do not fit what is left comes with
`pixelsOmitted`, checked before it is decoded, and type that does not
fit comes with `truncated`. The read-only objects are kept once and
written into the input from there.
A field a filter adds to a read-only object is named in the refusal
with control and bidirectional characters escaped, cut to 64
characters.
A filter manifest at `api` 2 may list `inputs` (`type`, `image`,
`symbolInstance`). Such a filter is also given the selected objects of
those kinds, read only: type with its runs and paragraph attributes,
images with their pixel size, color mode and, when embedded and small
enough, their RGBA pixels in base64 (never a linked file's pixels or
path), and symbol instances with their symbol and transform.
The output must return each read-only object as {"id": ...} alone or
exactly as given. A change, an omission or a duplicate is refused
before the edit, so the document and undo history stay as they were,
including for output handed in from a heavy run. A filter without
`inputs` gets the same input bytes as before.
A manifest that lists `inputs` below `api` 2, outside a filter, with an
unknown or repeated kind, or with a permission list that lacks
`doc.read` does not install.
Part of #4333
A live effect whose manifest has "api": 2 and "paintOutput": true returns
{"objects": [...]} as pieces, each drawn by itself in order with fills and
strokes of its own in the forms a filter returns. A piece without fills or
strokes keeps the ones the effect was given, and an empty list paints none.
An effect on a fill returns only fills, one on a stroke only strokes.
The whole result is checked before any of it is drawn: the output limits,
finite numbers in range with nothing clamped, known keys only, and every
swatch and pattern it names in the document. One fault draws that step of
the stack unchanged, keeps the effect record and puts the plug-in's name
and the field in plugin.info's lastError. Each piece counts against the
geometry-effect budget, so the painted effects of one stack make at most
100,000 pieces.
The pieces are drawn, measured and exported to PDF and SVG from the
appearance stack without changing the document, and Expand Appearance
writes them as ordinary paths in one undo step. The plug-in API level
rises to 2; plugin.list and plugin.info give api and paintOutput. Effects
without the key behave as before.
An importer plug-in (kind "importer", permission import.read) lists 1 to 8
file extensions and turns a file's bytes into objects, which open as a new
document whose artboard is their bounds. File › Open lists its extensions,
File › Open With (file.openWith) opens a file with a chosen importer, and
document.open takes importer and params. A built-in format that reads the
file by its content or extension always opens it; among importers listing
the same extension, the one whose id sorts first opens it. An importer reads
at most 128 MiB, and Place still reads only the built-in formats.
